I felt it a good idea to put together a social group for expats, local Jordanians, and especially UN employees and their spouses/families so we can all enjoy our experience in this wonderful country.

You should be able to view all details about my group, and do have a look under the Message Board entitled "IDEAS and more ideas please" to give you an idea of some of my interests.

JORDAN SCUBA DIVING : Scuba Diving in Jordan Guide

Although only 10k of coastline, Jordan’s marine park boasts some superb easy reef diving with a large variety of species, some quite different from neighboring Egypt; Frogfish, seahorses, sharron shrimp , albino morays , snake eels and a wide variety of nudibranchs are to be found. ,

Night Dive:

Country facts
• When to Go:
In spring or autumn

• Native Language:
Arabic

• Budget meal:
US$ 1-2
Easy and sheltered shore access provides some stunning night time encounters; frogfish, seahorses, a large variety of shrimps, slipper lobsters, anemone crabs and burrowing anemones, and free swimming snake eels can all be found in the shallow sandy expanse leading out to the reefs, while the reefs themselves are home to crinoids, sponges and featherstars.

Photo:
Superb for close up and macro with lots of unusual species to film. Clear calm conditions make photography easy, however as most of the dives are from the shore, great care must be taken to avoid sand and grit contaminating O ring; load your camera’s in a sterile environment, and keep it in a large plastic bag until underwater; remove bag during the dive and replace before exiting;wash/ rinse as soon as possible after there dive. Hire and some spares available locally.

Reef
These are generally made up of hard corals, with some outcrops of soft corals and the occasional fans; Not as dramatic as those in the Red Sea (Jordan is in the Gulf of AQUABA), and some areas have suffered from rubbish dumping. The influence of sandy beaches seems to have had an effect on the reefs.

Wreck
THE CEDAR PRIDE (see SPORTEXTREME.COM feature) was sunk as a diving attraction many years ago, and is one of the best locations to see soft corals in large proportions and size. An old anti aircraft tank has also been sunk to benefit divers.

"Dive Aqaba is an owner-opererated PADI school soon to become a 5star outfit. They are friendly, excellent value for your hard earned money and what is nice to see, have the latest brand new kit. It was like diving with a family: didn't want to go home."
Jeremy Langstaff

"Just had a 10 day visit to Jordan, initially staying in Aqaba for the diving. Went through Dive Aqaba who were absolutely wonderful. They made us very welcome, had wonderful humour, were extremely organised and their kit was first class. They took us to some fantastic diving sites and it was wonderful to not be at a site which was very crowded. I felt that the diving was far more superior at this part of the Red Sea than Egypt."

"After 2 years diving regulary in Aqaba i tried almost every diving center in Aqaba. My absolute favorite is the Yasmena boat with the diving instructor Yazan Alsead and his crew. Its a perfect diving boat, exclusive and very personal, never crowded, no rush, good equipement, extremly friendly and helpful, very professional, good food and a perfect sundeck to relax after the dives. Nice and easy dive sites for beginners, but also ship wreck Cedar pride, a tank and steep cliffs. Prices are reasonable. We always have been there in groups of 3-4 people and had the boat just for us. Its still a little secret, so try it yourself!."
Barbara Scheicher, 2006

JORDAN TOURISM : Jordan Travel & Tourism GUIDE

Most of Amman’s noteworthy historical sites are clustered in the downtown area, which sits at the bottom of four of Amman’s seven hills, or jabals. The ancient Citadel, which towers above the city from atop Jabal al-Qala’a, is a good place to begin a tour of the city. The Citadel is the site of ancient Rabbath-Ammon, and excavations here have revealed numerous Roman, Byzantine and early Islamic remains. The most impressive building of the Citadel, known simply as al-Qasr ("the Palace"), dates back to the Islamic Umayyad period. Its exact function is unclear, but it includes a monumental gateway, an audience hall and four vaulted chambers. A colonnaded street also runs through the complex. To the north and northeast are the ruins of Umayyad palace grounds.

Close to al-Qasr lie the remains of a small Byzantine basilica. Corinthian columns mark the site of the church, which is thought to date from the sixth or seventh century CE. About 100 meters south of the church is what is thought to have been a temple of Hercules, today also known as the Great Temple of Amman. The temple was built in the reign of the emperor Marcus Aurelius (161-180 CE), and is currently under restoration.

Also on Citadel Hill, just northwest of the Temple of Hercules, is the Jordan Archeological Museum. This small museum houses an excellent collection of antiquities ranging from prehistoric times to the 15th century. There is an exhibit of the Dead Sea Scrolls, a copy of the Mesha Stele (see Madaba section for explanation) and four rare Iron Age sarcophagi. Museum hours are 08:30-17:00 daily. On Fridays and official holidays the museum is open from 09:00-16:00.

Downhill from the Citadel and five minutes walk east from downtown, the Roman Theater is the most obvious and impressive relic of ancient Philadelphia. The theater, which was built during the reign of Antonius Pius (138-161 CE), is cut into the northern side of a hill that once served as a necropolis—or graveyard. It is very similar in design to the amphitheater at Jerash, and can accommodate 6000 spectators. The theater is still used periodically for sporting and cultural events.

Two small museums are built into the foundations of the Roman theater. The Jordan Folklore Museum is in the right wing of the theater and displays a collection of items showing the traditional life of local people. At the other end of the theater stage, the Museum of Popular Traditions displays traditional Jordanian costumes, including fine embroidery and beautiful antique jewelry. It also houses several sixth-century mosaics from Madaba and Jerash. The Museum of Popular Traditions is open daily 09:00-17:00, and closed on Tuesday. The Jordan Folklore Museum is open every day from 09:00-17:00, except Friday when its hours are 10:00-16:00.

To the northeast stands the small theater, or Odeon, which is still being restored. Built at about the same time as the Roman theater, this intimate 500-seat theater is used now as it was in Roman times, for musical concerts. Archaeologists think that the building was originally covered with a wooden or temporary tent roof to shield performers and audiences from the elements. Heading southwest from the theater complex, Philadelphia’s chief fountain, or Nymphaeum, stands with its back to Quraysh Street. Much of the fountain, which was completed in 191 CE, is hidden from public view by private houses and shops. The Nymphaeum is believed to have contained a 600 square meter pool, three meters deep, which was continuously refilled with fresh water. Jordan’s Department of Antiquities is currently excavating the Nymphaeum, and ultimately hopes to restore the site to its original structure by 2010.

From the Nymphaeum, the short stroll to the King Hussein Mosque bustles with pedestrians, juice stands and vendors. The area around the King Hussein Mosque, also known as al-Husseini Mosque, is the heart of modern downtown Amman. The Ottoman-style mosque was rebuilt in 1924 on the site of an ancient mosque, probably also the site of the cathedral of Philadelphia. Between the al-Husseini Mosque and the Citadel is Amman’s famous gold souq, which features row after row of glittering gold treasures.
